Ambient April: Day 19

This MP3 was found at  Dilandau MP3

So this band has been compared to the Smiths. That was all they needed to catch my interest. The Vaccines are an indie rock band from England, not really. They're signed to a major record label. So if one of those executives realizes the cash cow he is sitting on these guys could blow up overnight with a commercial spot or viral video. 
This track is about as ambient as a ballad to fleeting youth can get. The lyrics have a Goldilocks meaning, not too meaningful or lacking, but just right. It's easy to get into the groove and agree with what they're saying. I like that most of their songs are kind of out there. As proven by the brethren track, "Post Break-Up Sex" which is also off their album, What did you expect from the Vaccines?
